Seeing that this thing pleased her, the others were not to be outdone and took out the congratulatory gifts they had prepared.

"Concubine Su, this is a chopsticks made of sterling silver, people with a vicious heart can't prevent it, when you eat, you only need to take these pair of chopsticks to eat, you can try out a hundred poisons, no longer have to worry about it."

"This is the night pearl of the East China Sea, and after nightfall, I put it at the head of the bed, and the illuminated room is as bright as day, so that when Concubine Su gets up to drink tea when she is thirsty, she doesn't have to light a gambling candle."

Su Qingyan was dizzying to see all kinds of gifts, when she went to participate in other people's banquets in the past, most of the people who gave gifts would prepare some elegant things, but it was good for her, it was either gold or silver, and even the pearls came out overnight. However, each flower has its own eyes, she is a layman, and the famous calligraphy and painting are indeed not as pleasing as gold. "I've received all your thoughts, Ah Ying, gather all these gifts and put them in the treasury."

"Yes."

Xie Ying called a few family members, and laboriously moved all the heavy things out of the main hall.

When the women and ladies saw that she accepted the gift, they began to talk about their intentions, "Concubine Su, I can't hide it, I came here this time to ask you for something." ”

"Madame, please."

"I have a nephew who has not been successful, and after years of hard reading, he finally won the top prize. But he didn't want to enter the Hanlin Academy, and insisted on martial arts, I thought that Xiaoyao Su was a general with great achievements, could Su Ye say a few kind words in front of the emperor and let him lead a military general's errand. ”

Su Qingyan raised his eyebrows, "Today's saint has always been a person who cherishes talents, if the nephew of the lady is quite good at martial arts, he can go to participate in the annual martial arts competition." As long as he can come out on top, it will not be difficult to become a general in the future. ”

"I know this truth, but that kid hasn't suffered much, it takes a lot of time to select from scratch, if Su Ye is willing to say a few good words for him, he should be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

"I'm afraid this will disappoint Madame, my family's Su Ye has always been an iron-faced and selfless person, and the generals under his command can only be promoted after making military exploits. Even if your nephew is a dragon and a phoenix among people, he has to go through layers of selection. ”

"Is it really impossible to be accommodating anymore?"

"As a woman, I understand Madame very well, but after all, I'm just a woman in the backyard, and I can't say anything in front of Master Su, I'm afraid I'll disappoint Madame."

This is clearly.

Who doesn't know that Xiaoyao Su regards Su Qingyan as the person on the tip of his heart, and he even almost tore his face for her and the emperor yesterday. But the words had come to such an extent that the woman could not continue to entangle, so she had to smile and smile.

Everyone who had just asked for Su Qingyan swallowed the words back into their stomachs, and it was better not to open their mouths than to touch their noses.

After a while, the group of ladies finally dispersed, and only a few young ladies remained in the antechamber.

"Qingyan, congratulations so much, let's go to the seafood restaurant to eat in the future, you can have more discounts."

What kind of character Su Qingyan is, they know better than anyone else, whether she is Concubine Su or the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion now, it is not as direct as calling her name directly.

"Look at what you said, don't talk about discounts, it's okay to get free orders."

"Hahaha, then we're welcome, but to be honest, we are both happy and worried about you, looking at the posture just now, there must be only a lot more people who begged you to do things later."

The sophistication of human feelings is the most difficult to deal with, it is enough to refuse once or twice, and if there are too many rejections, it will cause dissatisfaction, and Su Qingyan's situation will be very bad at that time.

"It doesn't matter, I never care about the eyes of others, they say that I am difficult to get along with, or that I rely on the power of Xiaoyaosu to fake the tiger. Su Qingyan is just Su Qingyan and will not change because of anything. ”

The ladies smiled.

As a woman, it is really enviable to be able to live so freely and chicly, and not care about the world's eyes.

"Qingyan, I didn't prepare anything valuable for this trip, I just embroidered a belly pocket for the child in your womb, I don't know if you like it or not."

"Your embroidery is one of the best, can I not like it? When the child lands, let him call you godmother. ”

The woman blushed, "My mother nagged all day long to tell me about her family, but I didn't expect my husband to find it, so I added a godson first, which feels really strange." ”

"It's not clear if it's a son or a daughter."

"It must be a big fat boy." In the eyes of the women of Daliang, only by giving birth to a son can the mother be expensive with the son, and the child in Su Qingyan's womb must be a male baby.

"Then I will borrow your auspicious words."

It was rare to get together with this group of friends, Su Qingyan chatted with them happily for a while, and after sending them out of the house, he returned to the courtyard to rest.

Seeing that she was tired between her eyebrows, Yi Huan lit a stick of incense.

The smell of this spice is peculiar, with a hint of sweetness mixed in the tranquility, and the smell is refreshing, and even the headache is much soothed.

"Yihuan, what kind of incense is that?"

"This fragrance is called Zhanyan, which is unique to Beili, no matter how much sorrow there is, as long as you smell a little, you can be calm, and there is no longer any worries."

"It's really a good thing, and it doesn't have any effect on the child?"

"Concubine Su, don't worry, this spice will not have any side effects on the mother and the fetus."

Su Qingyan nodded, "With you by my side, I'm really much more relaxed." ”

"It's my blessing to be able to relieve Concubine Su's sorrows."

Yi Huan doesn't talk much, and most of the time she stays quietly in the corner, and it's easy for people to ignore her existence.

Su Qingyan didn't care about her background, and she didn't want to ask her about her past, as long as she was willing to be a good maid wholeheartedly.

"Concubine Su, the things sent by the women and nobles just now have been stored in the warehouse, and the subordinates see that they are worth a lot of money, so you don't ask about them and accept them all, won't you really cause criticism?" Xie Ying walked into the room and asked worriedly.

Su Qingyan smiled lightly, "Otherwise, dealing with this group of people is the most difficult. If I take them all but don't do anything for them, others will definitely say that I am greedy for money and put on a show. But if I accept it selectively, it will be easy to offend people, and no matter how I do it, it will cause trouble. ”

"So are these things in the storeroom all the time?"

"Of course not, I've seen it, most of them are gold and silver, you make a list tomorrow, I will report it to the court, and then convert it into cash to help the people who are suffering and suffering."

That way, no one will dare to gossip at her backbone.

"It's still Concubine Su who is smart."

"What smart or not, it's not that you've been dealing with this group of people for a long time, no matter how heartless a person is, you should become a cunning fox."

Xie Ying smiled, "Concubine Su doesn't have to worry about that group of people, it's been busy all day, you can quickly rest for a while." "Well, I'm a little tired, I'll sleep for a while, and you let Su Ci come in the evening, I have something to say to him."

"Yes."

In the evening, Xie Ying brought Su Ci to Su Mansion.

He looked like he had just come back from the sea, and his clothes were still mixed with a slight smell of the sea: "Sister Qingyan, I can be regarded as seeing you, are you okay these days?" ”

"It's all good, you look a lot richer, and you know at a glance that Xia Lan takes good care of you."

Su Ci smiled honestly, "Xia Lan is very caring, I have hot meals to eat when I go home every day after work, it is my blessing to have such a wife." ”

Seeing that he was doing well, Su Qingyan also felt very relieved.
