Chapter 60: Returning to My Mother's Home III
Before Xing'er could recover from the aftermath of Uncle Hammer, a woman in a plain yellow brocade dress walked in this direction with a few maids.
The woman's face is full of elegance, with a smile on her eyebrows, although she is old and decrepit, it is not difficult to see that she was once a beauty, and there is a faint righteousness between her eyebrows, presumably this is her own lady!
"Auntie, why did you come out to greet your daughter? Wu'er has seen Auntie!" Xing'er was very respectful of this eldest lady at a glance, just because she looked at her with a look of love and gentleness, loving father and mother, is the weakest place in Xing'er's heart!
"Wu'er, you've been gone for more than three months, but you miss your aunt!" Chu Shuning smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked at Xing'er gently, took Xing'er's hand, and walked in slowly!
"Madam, where are you taking her to?" Long Xiang saw Chu Shuning walking towards Xiyuan with Xing'er, so he hurriedly shouted, "Let her drink saliva first!"
Chu Shuning said without looking back: "Naturally, I will give her mother incense first, master, you wait in the hall, make the tea she likes to drink, and come over later!"
Xing'er let her hold her hand, a warm current went straight to the bottom of her heart, she hadn't been pulled by a warm hand like this for a long time, and she hadn't walked slowly behind an adult like this for a long time, this feeling was so comfortable! Dabao and Linglong followed behind Xing'er, their eyes and bones looking at this prime minister's mansion that was rumored to be comparable to the regent's mansion.
In fact, although the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Royal Mansion are the same magnificent, they still have essential differences. This prime minister's mansion was given by the first emperor and built by the Ministry of Industry Shangshu himself. The materials for the construction are all transported back from Dali, which can be described as a waste of money and labor, but Long Xiangye can indeed afford such treatment, just because he has been a minister for many years, and has been dedicated to the people, honest and self-respecting. Before the emperor gave this prime minister's mansion, he had no idea that it was building his mansion. The whole prime minister's house can be described as magnificent, the pavilions rising from the ground, the houses with sections and scales, and even the rockery pavilions are quite imposing!
And the regent palace, but it is the palace of the previous dynasty, there are many years of history, weathered, but stand tall, the construction and decoration is also extremely luxurious, carved beams and painting pavilions, gold carving and jade masonry, although it has lasted for many years, but it is still gorgeous! The ancestors once praised this mansion, and ordered that the future royal buildings are all taken as an example, and it is the highest pattern!
Chu Shuning led Xing'er to stop in front of the tallest building in the mansion, Xing'er looked up, and there were actually several floors high, and the height was high, but it formed a tower-like slenderness.
The strong smell of incense came to his nostrils, and Xing'er naturally knew that this was the Dragon Family's Divine Tower, that is, a place to worship ancestors!
There were two smart and clever girls who ran out, both of them were seventeen or eighteen, they were the maids in charge of cleaning the Divine Tower, "See the eldest lady, see the fifth lady!" The two bent their legs and saluted, Chu Shuning was also very polite to his subordinates, and said with a faint smile: "Miss wants to incense the second lady, go and prepare!"
"Yes!" the two took three steps back, then turned and entered!
Chu Shuning took Xing'er's hand and said softly: "Wu'er, now that you are married to another woman, you must no longer be as willful as before!" Xing'er didn't understand why she suddenly came to her senses, and turned her head to look at her suspiciously.
"The eldest lady knows that you were punished by the prince to Xishan for three months because of jealousy with the concubines, the eldest mother is very annoyed in her heart, there are many concubines in this palace, and you are such a fierce character, how can you survive? I knew that it would make you suffer, and the eldest mother would not let you get on the sedan chair no matter what!" Chu Shuning walked all the way, thinking about this problem in her heart, that day she and the old man were soft-hearted, and couldn't help Xing'er's crying, and let her get on the sedan chair in a moment of confusion, which not only harmed her reputation, but also damaged the master's wisdom. Later, Long Xing'er was punished to Xishan Buddha for three months, sharpening her temperament, she always regretted it in her heart, she shouldn't let her marry rashly!
"Auntie, everyone has their own life, maybe the daughter should have such a fate, but I don't know!" Xing'er comforted softly.
