Chapter 21: Stop the people and the car

Early this morning, the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion sent someone to send a few lacquered plates of gold, silver and jewelry, and officially settled the relationship between her and Sun Shizi.

After avoiding her gaze weakly, Qiu Shi said calmly, "You are a woman!" ”

"Remember clearly, no matter if anything happened to you and that Lord Xie last night, you must say to the outside world that nothing happened!"

Qiu Shi said these words sternly, afraid that she would not listen, and then softened his voice and comforted him, "In the future, remember to stay away from that Lord Xie, people are terrible, that Lord Xie is a man, and he is from a noble background, he can not care about the rumors outside, but you are a woman, and you must pay attention to some of your own reputation." ”

Chen Anning sat up with his hands propped up, "The peach pendant on my mother's body is newly bought?" ”

"Of course not," Qiu quickly covered the tourmaline belt around his waist, "I've been buying this for a while, but I haven't worn it all since." ”

"Really?" Chen Anning asked casually, "How much did you buy it?" ”

Qiu Shi sneered: "Three or four taels of silver, right?" I don't remember exactly how many. ”

Chen Anning calmly stretched out his hand, "Take me a look." ”

Qiu didn't want to give it, but in the face of her compelling gaze, he could only reluctantly tear off the peach pendant and hand it to her.

Chen Anning took the peach pendant, and after playing with it for a while, he joked: "Mother is sure that this peach pendant only costs three or four taels of silver?" ”

Qiu stiffened his head and said, "It should be." ”

"This peach pendant ......" looks like it is from Yubao Zhai, looking at the quality of jade, at least twenty taels of silver. As soon as Chun Tao spoke, Chen Anning interrupted her, "Hexiang, take five taels of silver and give it to my mother, I like this peach pendant very much, so I bought it from my mother." ”

Hexiang obediently went to fetch five taels of silver and handed it to Qiu.

I don't know if she did it intentionally or unintentionally.

The silver retrieved was one of the fifty taels of silver that Qiu returned yesterday.

Among the several lacquered plates of gold and silver jewelry sent by the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion, Qiu's favorite is this tourmaline with emerald peach. Seeing that it was taken away by Chen Anning, Qiu Shi endured the heartache, reluctantly took the silver ingot, and when he saw the tooth marks on it, his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground.

Hexiang quickly helped her up.

"Mother is reluctant to give me this peach pendant?" Chen Anning deliberately asked while playing with Tao Pei.

"Of course not." Qiu Shi held Hexiang's arm and said with his eyes on Taopei, "I didn't rest well last night, and my legs were a little weak for a while." ”

"Since I haven't rested, while it's still early, my mother will go back and make up for it." Chen Anning casually threw the peach pendant on the bedside cabinet.

The rude movements frightened Qiu's heart thumpping. Seeing that Tao Pei fell to the cabinet in a good manner, he was slightly relieved and said, "I'll just sit down and take it slowly." ”

"Then Mother just sit down." Chen Anning said, and lifted the quilt and got up.

Chunrui and Chuntao immediately went to the cabinet, took out clothes and accessories, and stepped forward to change her clothes.

Qiu's gaze inevitably fell on the clothes they were holding as the two of them moved.

Seeing that the embroidery of the clothes was no different from what she wore yesterday, she couldn't help but step forward to touch it. After being stopped by Chunrui at a glance, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to the accessories they were resting aside, "These, all from the Splendid Pavilion?" ”

Chun Tao said proudly: "The clothes worn by the eldest princess and the county lord have always been cut by the Splendid Pavilion. Miss Chen Er's stay in the eldest princess's mansion was still short, and she didn't have time to ask the embroidery girls to cut it from scratch, but the clothes she wore were still carefully selected from the Splendid Pavilion. ”

"As far as the white silk back with the colorful embroidered Vermilion Bird Mandarin Duck pattern in my hand, the silk used is from the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, and it can only produce seven horses a year, and the price of each horse is at least five hundred taels of silver. And this one can only cut a maximum of three such backs. ”

Qiu Shi looked at the back in her hand in distraction.

A silk horse of five hundred taels of silver can only cut three such backs, and that one will cost at least more than one hundred taels of silver.

In addition to the clothes, inner skirts, gauze skirts, curtains, shoes, accessories, and hairpins, etc., a body will cost five hundred taels of silver, to say the least.

When they were taking the clothes in the cabinet just now, although she didn't see how many bodies there were, no matter how high the clothes were stacked, no matter how you estimated, there were five bodies.

According to the estimation of five hundred taels of silver for one body, the five bodies are also two thousand five hundred taels of silver.

No wonder Chen Anning could throw the peach pendant so casually......

No, now is not the time to worry about that.

In the morning, the several lacquered plates of gold, silver and jewelry sent by the Kaiyang Hou Mansion added up to nearly a thousand taels of silver. originally thought that it was enough, but compared with the gift given by the eldest princess, it would inevitably seem a little shabby.

Chen Anning only treated the eldest princess for her head disease, and the eldest princess gave so much.

The Kaiyang Marquis Mansion wanted to marry her, but only took less than a thousand taels of silver?

She is the only heir of the Medicine King Valley, and she is a divine doctor disciple who is enough to match any prince and nobleman!

The Kaiyang Hou Mansion wanted to send the Chen family away like this, but it was too deceitful!

Qiu's face was cold in an instant, and after casually finding a reason, he hurriedly left Qingzhi Courtyard.

Chen Anning looked at her distant back and instructed Hexiang: "Find someone to follow her." ”

Hexiang should be, after quickly going out to arrange people, as soon as he returned to the house, there was a noise outside the door.

After Hexiang glanced at Chen Anning, she walked out quickly. After asking about the situation, after coming back and carefully looking at Chunrui and Chuntao, he reported in a low voice: "It's the groom in the eldest princess's mansion." He said that Madame wanted to use the carriage of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, but after he refused, Madame had someone forcibly pull him down and snatch the carriage. ”

"You serve Miss Chen Er's dinner, I'll go out and have a look." After Chunrui explained Chun Tao's sentence, she walked out quickly.

After a while, she came back and said calmly: "Everything has been appeased, Miss Chen Er don't worry." ”

She's not worried.

It's just a pity that she originally planned to use this matter to test the eldest princess's purpose for her.

Now being appeased by her is obviously not working.

Glancing outside, Chen Anning instructed Hexiang, "Let people continue to follow." ”

After the lotus fragrance should be, he went out to arrange it again.

After eating, Chen Anning walked around Qingzhi Courtyard twice with nothing to do, and then asked Hexiang to find a fishing rod, carry a bucket, sit on the edge of the lotus pond, and catch a carp.

Two hours later.

He Xiang arranged to follow Qiu's little girl back.

Coincidentally, there were also gluttonous carp who took the bait.

While listening to the news that the little servant had reported that the Qiu family had gone to the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion, Chen Anning unhurriedly dragged the carp from the middle of the lotus leaf to the near shore, and then swung the rod to throw the carp onto the grass.

After putting down the fishing rod, catching the struggling carp, taking the hook out of its mouth, and throwing it into the bucket, looking at its figure still swimming in the small bucket, Chen Anning leisurely ordered: "Hechun, Chunrui, you two take people, stop her and the carriage for me to Qingzhi Courtyard!" ”
